12 Week Self-Challenge Week 3



So, I'm pretty proud of how well I did last week before Thanksgiving. I didn't end up exercising on Wednesday, like I planned, it was just way too busy, but up to then, I had exercised every weekday from the previous week through Tuesday, November 22! On Thanksgiving morning, I weighed myself and was 138.5! I had lost a pound since the previous weigh-in, so was pretty happy with that.

So, my next goal is to now loose around 2 pounds each week, at least up to a certain point. Right now, I'm hoping to do this until I post my next goal a few weeks from now. I don't know how long my body will let me do this, so I'll just see what happens, but I know right now, this is very doable and hopefully I can achieve it.

Yesterday, I weighed myself and was 139 pounds. I don't think this is bad considering ALL the food I did eat from Thanksgiving through the rest of the long weekend. We had enough food at our big family gathering to feed the entire state. Derek's brother and his fiancĂ© were here, so we had them over for pizza, and then Sunday when they left, we all went out for a nice, big breakfast. So, just gaining .5 a pound is just fine with me!

Over the weekend, Derek moved the treadclimber into the guest room. Now, I can workout and watch my TV shows at the same time! This equals a much more enjoyable (that also seems to go faster) workout, along with a longer one. Monday and yesterday I did a 40 minute workout! Today, I went back to 30 minutes because his headphones were plugged in and I am not sure how to switch back to normal sound...it's not as simple as just plugging cords back in.

Once I can find my weights, I'll be back to doing Zumba on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
